General Porter is miking a san

of the five trloes and make them
the pliant tools iu insisting on sep
arate statehood for Indian Teni

excusable at this time for tbe rank

It would be a much more digni
fied proceeding if the chiefs of the
several tribes would attend the
statehood meeiing at Claremore
instead of journeying to Eu'aula,
to act as a tail to Purtir's political

the Indian territory is single state
